By Eileen Rosenthal, Marc Rosenthal (Illustrator)
A boy and a cat battle over a beloved sock monkey.
Willy wakes up to find his cherished sock monkey, Bobo, missing. Desperate to reclaim his favorite toy, he discovers that Earl the cat has taken a liking to Bobo, too. As Willy and Earl engage in a playful tug-of-war, the question arises: can they learn to share, or will Bobo remain a point of contention? Dive into this whimsical tale of friendship and rivalry, where a simple sock monkey becomes the center of a delightful struggle.
When Willy woke up there was trouble. Where was Bobo? Willy needs Bobo. But, Earl the cat likes Bobo, too. A favorite toy is hard to share…even when it’s a sock monkey. With sparse text and a modern-nostalgic vibe, this retro-fun book about friends (sock monkeys) and frenemies (devious cats) is an ode to favorite toys everywhere. Oh, Earl! Leave Bobo alone.
